An Incredible Summer At Anderson & Anderson Anger Management

An Incredible Summer At Anderson & Anderson Anger Management

This has been an unusually busy and productive summer at Anderson & Anderson. Bryan spent part of the summer attempting to modernize the operations of the office and assisted in redesigning the Anderson & Anderson Anger Management Website. He is now at Columbia University School of Social Work pursuing an MSW with the goal of modifying our curriculum for use with autistic patients.

Nancy worked almost daily providing assessments and coaching for anger management clients who wish to be seen in a coaching format. She will join me in providing Clinical Supervision for our MSW Interns who will begin in September.

Jhezrel Valentine joined our staff as our new Office Manager. Her warmth and polished interpersonal skills are a welcomed addition to our team.

Jairo took over the management of all On-line Courses and improved the shipping operations. Our On-line 40 -hour Anger Management Facilitator Certification is the most popular of all of our trainings.

The Illinois Chapter of the National Association of Social Workers has agreed to Co-Sponsor our three day Anger Management Certification Training in Chicago on October 12, 13, 14 at the Embassy Suites Hotel in Downtown Chicago. This may well be our most successful training ever.

Once our website is complete, we plan to go on a massive social networking and marketing campaign designed to assist Anderson & Anderson Certified Anger Management Facilitators Worldwide.

Please send us a note and let us know how we are doing.

Scope of Practice for Certified Anger Management Facilitators (CAMF)

Licensed Marriage and Family Counselors are permitted to provide counseling and psychotherapy within the scope of their practice as determined by the Board on Behavior Science in California. Licensed Clinical Social Workers are also legally allowed to provide a wide range of interventions including counseling, psychotherapy and consultation of a non-medical nature. Psychologists can provide psychological testing, counseling, psychotherapy and other non-medical interventions related to the treatment of nervous and mental disorders.

In the absence of state law, though, there is technically no scope of practice for trained anger management providers. However, it is in the best interest of all non-licensed psychotherapists who are providers of anger management to be informed of the limitations of what a certified anger management facilitator should and should not do.

As the result of complaints to the Department of Consumer Affairs’ regulatory agencies in California, several anger management providers are under investigation for providing counseling without a license. As the major provider of anger management facilitator certification in the nation, I take our responsibility as professional providers seriously and will do everything possible to cooperate in this investigation.

In this regards, I would like to make it clear that anger management is neither counseling nor psychotherapy. Anger management providers are trained to conduct an assessment for each client relative to the level of functioning in: recognizing and managing anger and stress, communications, and emotional intelligence. Following the assessment, the anger management facilitator is trained to provide classes individually or in groups to help the client develop skills in those four areas.

Therefore, the scope of practice is limited to anger management assessment and teaching classes pertaining to the management of anger, either in groups or individual/ coaching settings.

Finally, I encourage all consumers and providers to report any apparent violation of the aforementioned, implied scope of practice for certified anger management providers in California.

In order to protect consumers, we must regulate ourselves.
